Interesting stats are in the news today showing that this year is going to be the coolest gloabally since 2000.

More fuel for the climate change nay sayers? or all part of this big ol' planets cycles :)

I think it is all cyclical

Our effect on the earth os certainly being felt but this bucks the trend and the propoganda.

I've said it before and I'll say it again; I believe the planet is warming up, but that it will also cool down, in line with trends over the past 500 years.

There's no doubt we make an impact on our planet and need to clean up our act - not just for our own sakes either - but being bullied into paying higher prices by the people sitting at the top isn't the way forward.

didnt they say that last year though ?

Last year was the wettest on record, and this year the coldest. But apparently August this year was again the wettest on record. Is there ever a year when it's just average? "The most bog standard year since records began"
